[Relationship between time of ossification center appearance and hip joint development stage using Graf's method].

The aim of this paper was to relate time of the ossification center appearance and development stage according to Graf. Retrospective analysis included 4546 sonograms in children from 1 to 6 months of age and 1252 sonograms in 313 healthy newborns. An earlier appearance of the ossification center was found in females (7 weeks against 10 weeks of life in males). Statistically significant relationship was found between the delay in the ossification center appearance time and hip dysplasia. The delay exceeding 6 months is suggestive of serious pathology and complications in later stages of hip development.

Congenital cystic eye with multiple ocular and intracranial anomalies.

We describe a newborn with congenital cystic eye, contralateral persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous, and cerebrocutaneous abnormalities. The cerebrocutaneous abnormalities consisted of agenesis of the corpus callosum, midbrain deformity, malformed sphenoid bone, right upper eyelid coloboma, and a left periocular hamartoma. The results of karyotype analysis of the patient and his parents were normal. The association of congenital cystic eye with contralateral persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous has not been previously reported, to our knowledge. Although no unifying diagnosis exists for the collection of anomalies demonstrated in this patient, the term cranial ectodermopathy broadly classifies most of the defects.

[Surgical treatment of metacarpo-phalangeal joints in patients with rheumatoid arthritis].

The results of surgical treatment of 195 metacarpo-phalangeal joints in 132 rheumatoid patients were evaluated. The indications for each of three operative methods were presented with clinical assessment and Larsen, Dahle, Eek scale of radiological changes taken into consideration. The results of 137 synovectomies, 32 joint replacements and 24 arthroplasties in 88% were rated as good and fair. The advantages of early synovectomy as well as joint replacement in advanced arthritis were underlined.

[Determining the optimal time for synovectomy in rheumatoid arthritis of the knee joint].

In 108 patients with rheumatoid arthritis in whom before 4 years synovectomy of the knee joint was performed the relationship between the clinical state and selected indices of inflammatory process was studied. The clinical state of patients was evaluated using modified Gschwend test. Using the Mahalanobis D2 test no relationships between the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, Waaler-Rose test results, and seromucoid level during pre-surgery period on one side and the actual clinical state of patients were stated. According to the authors opinion the decision concerning the surgical treatment should be based solely on clinical state of patients and not on indices of inflammatory process.

[Endoprosthesis of the knee joint].

Endoprosthetic replacement of the knee joint is an important, often the terminal stage of surgical treatment in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and gonarthritis. Basing on the results of the over-11-year-experience of the ward, treatment methods were analyzed and various knee prostheses were evaluated. In evaluation, the modified Gschwend's scale was used. Nineteen results were good 18 fair, and 7 poor. An especially important role of proper qualification of a patient to surgery, conditions for insertion of endoprosthesis and the choice of a proper type of endoprosthesis has been stressed.

[Evaluation of the results of synovectomy of the knee joint performed in the early period of the rheumatoid process].

The authors analyzed the results of 77 early knee synovectomies in 65 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, performed in 1976-1987. Special attention was paid to pain, exudate, range of motion, flexion contracture, instability, ability to walk, and radiological changes in the Larsen's scale. The patient's subjective evaluation and the surgeon's intraoperative evaluation were also taken into account. The results were excellent --32.5 per cent, good 46.8 per cent, fair 6.5 per cent, and poor 14.2 per cent.
